The KTM 250 EXC-F SIX DAYS might have the smallest engine in the KTM 4-stoke stable, but it's no little fry when it comes to hitting the hard stuff. A lightweight chassis, an insane rev limit, and confidence-inspiring rideability make it a true enduro hero. All it takes is one look at its impressive trophy cabinet – and equally impressive sales records – and one thing is certain; the 2025 KTM 250 EXC-F SIX DAYS means business.
Now available at Lings Powersports, the KTM 250 EXC‑F Six Days pays homage to KTM’s storied ISDE (International Six Days Enduro) legacy. Designed for elite off-road riders, this limited-edition model combines proven long-duration performance with premium components and rally-inspired upgrades.
At its core lies a potent 250 cc liquid-cooled, four-stroke engine featuring a counter-balancer for smooth power delivery. Tuned to deliver strong low-to-mid range torque and crisp top-end response, this powerplant is paired with a six-speed gearbox and a user-friendly DDS slipper clutch for controlled acceleration in technical terrain.
Engine internals include lightweight pistons and reinforced cases to handle sustained ISDE-level stress. A two-position map switch (Standard and Soft) allows riders to tailor throttle response according to terrain and fatigue levels.
The chassis features a blend of lightweight strength and race-grade feedback. The chromoly steel mainframe is matched with a reinforced, powder-coated aluminum subframe. Suspension is at a premium level: 48 mm WP XACT closed-cartridge forks up front and a WP XACT PDS monoshock out back—both hand-adjustable for compression and rebound, delivering 300 mm of travel front and rear. Factory Six Days branding is highlighted throughout, from the white frame to the anodized adjusters.
Braking is strong and precise, with Brembo-style front and rear calipers (260 mm front, 220 mm rear discs), offering consistent stopping performance and confidence in rugged environments.
Rally-spec features include a flat endurance seat, reinforced handguards, skid plate, headlight kit, and rally-style graphics with a white-wheeled aesthetic. The bike also includes a unique Six Days numbered badge, exclusive seat trim, and high-performance LED lighting for low-light endurance runs.
With a dry weight close to 103 kg and aggressive ergonomics optimized for seated and standing riding, the KTM 250 EXC‑F Six Days blends competition-grade capability with rider-focused refinement. It’s the ultimate expression of rally heritage, built for those who demand sustained performance in extreme conditions.
